I disable JavaScript on all sites and then whitelist the sites I'm willing to accept JavaScript on. The whitelisted sites are sites with whom I have an ongoing relationship. For example, HN which uses JavaScript to expand/collapse comments.
This is nearly 100% effective.
Most sites are usable (usually a lot more usable) with JavaScript disabled. On some sites the layout is not as the site intended, but is still usable (often have remember to scroll down to see the content). A few sites refuse to serve content without JavaScript. Mostly I ignore those sites. Some times I enable JavaScript temporarily to read their content, but I usually have "buyer's remorse" after seeing the (low) quality of their site's content.
